Set location levels
- Open Inventory › Items and select an item.
- Find Custom Level and choose Select Branches.
- Select the branch or warehouse you want to configure.
- Enter its minimum, par and maximum levels in the units shown.
- Apply the changes and review the saved values.
- Check the location in Inventory Levels and review notification rules as needed.
Use the values
A minimum helps identify stock that needs attention. Par represents the working target you want to replenish toward. Maximum helps identify unusually high stock.
Minimum and maximum levels are alert thresholds. They are not hard caps that automatically block inventory posting.
Whether inventory posting may exceed available stock is controlled separately by inventory transaction settings. Do not change a minimum to fix a receipt or adjustment validation problem.
Use sensible values for each location; a warehouse and a small selling branch may need very different targets.
